'one probably does it after exhumation?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'note strange bruise' is the wordplay.
'note' becomes 're' (as in do-re-mi).
'strange' is an anagram indicator.
'bruise' is an anagram of 'buries'.
're'+'buries'='REBURIES'
